Disneyland with the Cooks

We got back from Disneyland on the 28, yes Amy’s birthday. We, the Finsand’s, got to enjoy a wonderful vacation with the Nat and Boyd Cook Family. It was great! The kids were so cute. They are full of fun! They enjoyed every moment of it. It was a little rainy but that didn’t stop us! In fact the rain is well worth the short lines. Are longest wait was Peter Pan Ride which Humble made us go on. The kids loved seeing the characters. We had a whole system down to make sure that we didn’t miss one. We enjoyed a fun dinner thanks to mother. Anyway, thanks Cook’s for a great trip. We love you and hope you still love us after all the fun!

New Design

I’m in the process of updating WordPress to the current version. We’re three behind and it’s not as easy at it might seem. I have to be careful so I don’t delete the 500-plus posts and nearly 3,000 comments, as well as all your usernames and passwords. When this is done, I’ll be adding some more functionality into the site that, hopefully, will allow more activity. In the meantime, scope out the new colors and such and listen to some tunes.


I’ll Miss You, President Hinckley!

The one constant in the church leadership since I can remember, has been President Hinckley. He will be greatly, greatly missed! I hope we can all remember his words to stand a little taller, and to reach out in kindness to all those around us. May we all live our lives so that he would be pleased….

YES!! My prayers have been answered! All of the 6 novels written by Jane Austen have now been adapted for the small screen. Some of them we have already seen and some are new and we even get a bio-pic of the lady herself, Jane Austen. Each Sunday night at 8 PM you can bet you’ll know where I will be….curled up on my bed with a de-caf diet Coke and piece of chocolate watching KUED!!! If you didn’t watch last week you missed her last novel, Persuasion. But don’t worry…there is still A LOT of Jane Austen to come….

Quote of the Day

Name the movie from which this quote derives……

“The great thing is to have lots of love about. I don’t see… at least I don’t see here, though I did at home, that it matters who loves as long as somebody does. I was a stingy beast at home, and used to measure and count. I had a queer obsession about justice. As though justice mattered. As though justice can really be distinguished from vengeance. It’s only love that’s any good. At home I wouldn’t love (my husband) unless he loved me back, exactly as much, absolute fairness. Did you ever. And as he didn’t, neither did I. Oh the emptiness of it all!”
